Alleged ‘Allahu Akbar’ Migrant Arrested For Stabbing Six At Paris Railway Station
2023-01-12
Sudden Jihad Syndrome.
[Breitbart] Police in Gay Paree have arrested a suspected Libyan national Wednesday after allegedly stabbing six people at the Gare du Nord railway station, with some witnesses claiming the man yelled "Allahu Akbar" at the time.

The 31-year-old, who initially claimed to be Algerian but Sherlocks believe may be from Libya, allegedly carried out the mass stabbing attack at around 6:45 am on Wednesday morning in the 10th arrondissement of Gay Paree, at a peak time for travel.

Witnesses claim that during the attack the 31-year-old, identified as Mohammed Amine M., yelled "Allahu Akbar", a commonly used phrase by Islamist holy warriors and other radical Islamic attackers that is typically translated in the West as "God is great". Yet, a more accurate translation would be "Allah is greater," or "Allah is greater than your God or government."

Despite the witness accounts, local police say they are still looking to confirm whether or not the phrase was yelled by the migrant, broadcaster Europe1 reports.

The Gay Paree prosecutor’s office has stated that of the six people stabbed, five were only lightly maimed, while the sixth victim is said to have been seriously injured as a result of the attack.

According to Sherlocks, the man, who was initially thought to be Algerian, is likely from Libya and gave false information following his arrest. While police believe he may be from Libya, his fingerprints returned matches for five different identities.
Maybe not so sudden SJS...
Police suspect that the man was also given an order to leave French territory in September of last year but deportation would have been impossible to carry out as La Belle France does not deport people to Libya.
Not at all sudden SJS, in fact.
Due to the large number of identities, the man’s exact identity may never be known with 100 per cent accuracy.
Dawn adds:
It was not immediately clear what type of weapon the attacker had used. Police initially described it as a bladed weapon. Darmanin later said it was not actually a knife, but a “threatening weapon”.

Le Parisien newspaper said it was believed to be a sharp pointed tool, “a kind of awl”.

The police who intervened were off-duty officers in plain clothes who used their service weapons to stop the attack, he said. The police officers “were returning from duty at police headquarters to take their train and go home, but they were armed”, Darmanin said. They were authorised to make use of their weapons although not on duty, he said.
